Chapter 141 Buying ducks

I didn't expect that she would suddenly become so angry. The woman in the blue cotton coat was stunned, "She is your daughter? It's impossible, right?"

"What's impossible?"

"How can you have such a small baby at your age?"

"What's wrong? You can't have children at the age of forty?" After Shen Su'e finished speaking, she pulled Lingbao and turned around to leave, but little Lingbao's hand was grabbed.

"Wait! I have to see if she is my sister's daughter."

The woman who spoke was named "Tong Li". She frowned and said with certainty: "She is definitely Yan'er! She is my sister's little daughter!"

"My name is not Yan'er, my name is Lingbao," the baby girl blinked her big clear eyes, "Auntie, you have the wrong person."

After she finished speaking, Tong Li, who was holding her, subconsciously let go and said in surprise: "Can you speak? Aren't you a little fool?"

"Who are you calling a fool?" Shen Su'e said angrily.

"No, my sister's daughter is stupid...she hasn't been able to speak since she was a child." After explaining, Tong Li apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It seems that I got the wrong person. She does look too similar. .”

"Huh!" Shen Su'e glared hard at Tong Li. When Shen Su'e pulled Lingbao and Tugen away, her heartbeat was so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out of her chest.

The child named Yaner looks very similar to Lingbao. She was thrown into the mountains by her grandmother and has not been found yet...

Shen Su'e wanted to ask which mountain Yan'er was thrown to? But she didn't dare to ask, fearing that Lingbao was really the Yan'er she mentioned.

If the Lingbao is that Yan'er, does she want to return the Lingbao to her mother?

Thinking of this, Shen Su'e felt like she had difficulty breathing, her body was shaking uncontrollably, and her face became extremely pale.

Noticing the strangeness of his mother, Lingbao shook her arm a few times and asked worriedly: "Mother, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No," Shen Su'e tried to stabilize her emotions, "Mom is fine..."

"But my mother's face is so ugly. Did that aunt just make you angry? If you hate that aunt, Lingbao will help you teach her a lesson!"

As soon as the little baby finished speaking, she turned around to go back to the chicken stall, but her mother hurriedly grabbed her arm and said, "It has nothing to do with that aunt."

"Really? But my mother looks very uncomfortable..."

"Lingbao, my mother is asking you, if you are really Yan'er, you..."

Before Shen Su'e could finish her question, the little girl frowned and interrupted: "Mom, what are you talking about? Lingbao is Lingbao! It's not just Yan'er."

"Has no one ever called you Yan'er before?"

"Yes, the person Lingbao saw when he was born was his mother. After that, he lived with his mother every day. No one ever called Lingbao any other name."

After hearing what little Lingbao said, Shen Su'e guessed that she had no memory of what happened before she was thrown into the mountains. If Lingbao was not the child of a fairy, but was born from a human, then her previous family members must have treated her very badly...

Yes! Otherwise, why would the immortal ask him to go to the mountains to find spiritual treasures in his dream?

Thinking of this, Shen Su'e calmed down and said to herself: That's right! The immortal asked me to raise Lingbao, and I am Lingbao's mother!

After comforting herself, she regained her smile.

"Mom was overthinking just now. It's okay now." She touched her daughter's head and asked with a smile, "Lingbao, do you want to raise chickens?"

"Little ducks..." Xiao Lingbao said, "I want five little ducks."

"Okay, mother will take you to buy ducklings." Shen Su'e took her daughter and grandson around the livestock market and found that there were many stalls selling chickens, but none selling ducks, but there was a stall. It's a duck seller.

"Lingbao, it seems that we can't buy ducklings anymore. Can we buy a mother duck?"

The baby nodded excitedly, "Mother ducks are better! Ducklings can only lay eggs when they grow up, and mother ducks can lay eggs right away!"

After speaking, she lowered her voice and said, "Actually, I bought this duck for the immortal. The immortal wanted to give Lingbao duck eggs, but he didn't have any ducks."

"Ah? God, god?"

Shen Su'e thought in surprise, why should the old man raise ducks first when giving duck eggs?

"Mother duck, mother duck that lays eggs..." The duck seller shouted for a long time, because his price was very expensive, and many people shook their heads and left after asking the price.

"How much does this hen duck cost?" Shen Su'e stepped forward and asked.

"Six yuan each," the stall owner said, "This female duck can lay eggs, and those duck eggs are ten cents each. As long as she lays sixty eggs, she will get her money back. To be honest, if my son hadn't needed money urgently to get a wife, How can I be willing to sell it?"

"Don't fool me. Duck eggs are only eighty-nine cents. Why are they reduced to ten cents? Six yuan for your duck is too expensive."

"Oh, even if it's eight or nine points, I can make it back in less than three months!"

Shen Su'e said: "What should we do if the duck dies within three months? Besides, it costs money to feed the ducks rice bran and wheat. Besides, ducks don't lay eggs every day. Your price is too expensive. You Make a real offer."

The stall owner said: "I'm really in a hurry for money, I can't afford less than six yuan..."

"Forget it." Shen Su'e said that and was about to leave with the children. The stall owner's voice came from behind, "Wait a minute, five and eight dollars, how about that?"

"Only two cents cheaper? It's really hard to bargain with you."

"Then how much do you want? You make a price."

Shen Su'e made a "three" sign with her fingers, "Three dollars, how about it?"

"How can you make such a counteroffer? If you can explain it well, three yuan is more than that for that big-headed drake."

"Then three and a half dollars."

"No! At least five dollars and a half!"

The two bargained for a long time, and Shen Su'e raised the price to four and a half yuan, "This price is worth not even a dime, really!"

Lingbao wanted to help his mother make a counter-offer, so he deliberately released some dragon energy.

Apparently smelling the scent of Lingbao, the duck in the cage huddled up, as if it had encountered a terrifying natural enemy, with its head buried in its feathers and shivering.

Shen Su'e noticed something was wrong with the duck. She squatted down, pointed at the duck and said, "Ah! What's wrong with you duck? Could it be that you have some plague?"

"Nonsense! I'm a good duck and in high spirits."

"You are obviously shaking, how can you feel energetic?"

After hearing what she said, the stall owner opened the cage in confusion and took the duck out. He saw that it was shaking even more violently, as if he was about to roll his eyes at any moment.

"What, what's going on? Everything was fine before."

"Fortunately I didn't buy it, it was a sick duck!" Shen Su'e said as she was about to pull Lingbao and Tugen away, but found that her daughter kept winking at her.

Is there nothing wrong with this duck? Did Lingbao make it shake?

Thinking of this, she said to the stall owner who was holding the duck and was about to cry: "Hey, I think it's not easy for you, so let's do this. If you are willing to sell, just pay the price I just said, four and a half yuan, okay?" "

"Yes, yes, yes!" the stall owner said anxiously.

After that, he handed over the money in one hand and the duck in the other. As if he was afraid that Shen Su'e would regret it, the stall owner took the money, carried the pole and cage, and ran away as if he was running away.
